Purport
Lord Sri Krishna was invited by Maharaj Yudhisthir to look into the supervision of the performances of Yajna and the Lord to abide by the orders of His elderly crusin, caused the performance of Yajnas by learned twice-born Brahmins. Simply by taking birth once for all in the family of a Brahmin, does not make one qualified for performing Yajnas. He must be twice-born by proper training and initiation from the bonafide Acharya. The once-born scions of Brahmin-family are calculated equal with the once-born Sudras and such Brahma-Bandhu or unqualified once-born man has no right to accept the priesthood of performing any form of Yajna or acts of fruitive duties. Such once-born scion of Brahmin family must be rejected for any purpose of religious or Vedic function. Lord Shri Krishna was entrusted to look after this arrangement and perfect as He is, He caused the Yajnas performed by the bonafide twice-born Brahmins for successful termination.
